Attempting to Define: Mourning is the second in a small collection of poetry books that tackle some of life's toughest issues. Mourning is a painful experience that is hard to feel, let alone define. These snapshots of anger, grief, loss, and the deepest sorrow are meant to create a portrait of mourning. The author hopes, above all, that this book will comfort those who suffer with the knowledge that their pain is shared.
H.M. Jones is the B.R.A.G Medallion author of Monochrome, to be re-released by Feminine Collective in Aug. 2016. She is also responsible for the Attempting to Define poetry quartet and has contributed a short story to Master’s of Time: A Sci-Fi and Fantasy Time Travel Anthology, entitled "The Light Storm of 2015." A bestseller only in her mind, Jones pays the electric bill by teaching English and research courses at Northwest Indian College. Jones is also the moderator for Elite Indie Reads, a review website for Indie and Self published books.
Besides buying enough second-hand books to fill a library, Jones loves to spend time helping her preschoolers grow into thinking, feeling citizens of this world, run, weave, pull with the Port Gamble S’Klallam Canoe Family and attempt to deserve her handsome husband, who is helping pay the other bills until his wife becomes the next big thing.
